Note on Algorithm for Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
TOC {:toc} Problem Setting The original problem of non-negative matrix factorization is simple, if the dissimarity $D(A\|HW)$ between original matrix and reconstructed one is L2 distance than,
$$ argmin_{H,W} \|A-HW\|_F^2, \\ s.t.\ W\succeq0, H\succeq0 $$The non-negative constraint applies element-wise.
